KILLDEER — A public input meeting for a proposed bypass around Killdeer is scheduled for Tuesday.

The bypass would connect Highway 200 to Highway 22 and divert traffic around the city, which sees a large amount of oilfield-related traffic. Highway 22 is currently the only north-south route through Killdeer.

The two-hour meeting is scheduled to begin at 5:30 p.m. at Killdeer Public School, 101 High St. NW. It will be open-house format with an open question-and-answer session following the formal presentation at 6:30 p.m.

Representatives from the North Dakota Department of Transportation, the city of Killdeer, Dunn County and engineering firm HDR Inc. will answer questions.
